We did a paddle in Hinze Dam this morning. Water levels right up on old levels and rising after the rain. In some areas you can actually paddle through the trees if your feeling adventurous. Set off into a reasonable head wind thinking this will be good on the way back with some wind chop runners about 8"-10" high in the middle. But as usual after paddling about 10k we turned and headed back to where the wind was, the bloody wind had dropped off.But it was a nice paddle back anyway.I think we might put it in as one of our regular paddles.If anybody is interested in joining us.

The boat ramp has a definite no dog sign at it. Is be very suprised if they allowed dogs in the water. It's a no go for us also.

Hey serj - the best part was watching boofy trying to sweep the bullants off his sup after paddling through the trees and going assoverhead into the drink - upon which he called out to me with a smile and said "you better buy bottled water on your way home cos I just emptied my bladder in your drinking water"

Bloody cockroach scumbag
